Today was the first day of actual preparation for TurkeyPalooza. We won't deliver the Thanksgiving-themed meals for another week, but it's important to start work on some projects as early as possible to make sure there isn't a time crunch towards the end.
During today's cooking shift, we had more volunteers than usual. I had the group of six split into two groups of three. One group did the normal food preparation while the other group peeled potatoes.
The work that went into this was pretty intense. The groups switched places once to keep everything from becoming stale and boring. Everyone seemed to be a good sport about the process and we finished an entire bag of potatoes in one shift.
The turkeys won't be dealt with until Thursday. In the meantime, they were defrosting on the sidelines. This week is sure to get very busy, so it will definitely be helpful to get simple jobs like peeling potatoes out of the way.
